Job: describes a task which needs to be done. In VSys, a job has a description and it may be associated with locations, a sport, skills or job preferences. It may have required interviews, trainings or background checks, and have restrictions on the volunteer's age and/or gender.
Job group: similar to a department, VSys uses job groups to organize jobs together. Every job has exactly one job group.
Job slot: a job combined with a time, location and duration where you need one or more volunteers.
Jobs and job groups should be set up globally. For a specific project, you can then copy the relevant jobs into that project, and then make any project-specific changes you need.
Before you begin
Decide first what your jobs are, and how they should be broken up into job groups. What are your departments? What are the functional units in your organization? These will help you organize your jobs.
Defining Jobs and Job Groups
To define jobs and job groups globally, from the Setup panel, click on Jobs and job groups definitions. To define them in a specific project, open that project then click on Job and job group definitions from the Setup panel in the project.
Click on the Add job group link to create a job group, on Add job to define a job, or click on an existing job or job group to edit its properties.
